There is only one possible result, the list owners will be sympathetic and tell Fleur to chalk it up to experience.
She has already mentioned the request was sent by email (i.e. private correspondence therefore nothing to do with the list or forum).
I will give the following advice, we live in a time of technology where is costs very little or nothing to send digital copies of research almost instantly around the world; Unlike the past when documents had to be transcribed, photographed or photocopied and posted all which cost money or hours of work, rather than the simple copy & paste of today.
Yet people today complain of sharing research which cost a lot of money to compile, yes it did but you the researcher had that fun and sense of achievement in the process.
If someone promises you something but fails to live up to that promise you have lost nothing, even if you have sent copies of the research you have compiled over the years at great expense you have lost nothing, don’t waste time worrying about it drop it and move on with what you enjoy, researching.
Every minute you waste worrying about such people is one less minute that could be spent on enjoyable research, which would you rather do?
Cheers
